Wellbeing Warriors Update

The Wellbeing Warriors have been working hard to ensure Wellbeing is promoted throughout our school daily. Here is notes of importance and some dates for your diary for this term.

Monday 29th January

We have planned a Wellbeing Day where every class will focus on different activities to relax their minds, move their bodies and make them feel good! Please ensure your child is dressed in comfortable clothing. This can be pjs, loungewear, trackies/joggers etc. NO DRESSES, SKIRTS, DENIUM. Each class has been issued a timetable for the day. A reminder that some activities are outside and so appropriate footwear and jackets must be worn.

 

February

Fruity Fridays will begin from Friday 2nd of February. Before playtime, a tally will be taken for how many pieces of fruit each child has for their snack. At the end of a 4 week block, the class who brought the most fruit will win a prize. This will run monthly.

This months Wellbeing Wednesday will focus on Kindness to coincide with kindness week. It will take place on Wednesday 7th February.

 

March

On Wednesday 6th March, our Wellbeing Wednesday will focus on friendship to coincide with kindness week.

 

Happiness Heroes

A reminder that our Happiness Heroes are in the playground everyday. They can be identified by their badges. If your child is upset, feeling left out or needs someone to talk to, please encourage them to look for a Happiness Heroes 😊

Laudato Si Leadership Group

 

Introducing our Laudato Si Leadership Group.

This year we have chosen to focus on Pope Francis’ Quote 3.

There are not two crises, one environmental and one social, but one complex crisis. The solution means we have to combat poverty, restore dignity to the excluded and protect nature.

We have lots of ideas to achieve our quote.  We will keep our Blog up to date to share what we have been doing and our plans for the future.

Wellbeing Warriors Update

Wellbeing Warriors
The Wellbeing Warriors are full steam ahead planning our Wellbeing Wednesday afternoons and a Wellbeing Day for January. Our next Wellbeing Wednesday will focus on the importance of sleep and the impact this can have on our physical and mental health.
In December, we will be introducing our Fruity Friday initiative where each class will add up the amount of fruit brought in as snack on a Friday over the course of 4 weeks. The fruitiest class will receive a special reward.
Our Happiness Heroes are also in the process of getting back up and running and we can’t wait to make sure our playground continues to be a happy and inclusive environment.
